Do you use a Desktop or a Laptop?

[Melash]

Just for fun...do you use a desktop or laptop? And why?

...

As for myself, I use a laptop, but I would rather have a much more powerful desktop as my main computer.

I use my desktop because my laptop doesn't exist.

Laptop, but the ginormous monitor hooked up to it makes it seem like a desktop.

 

[Giraffes? Giraffes!]

For a year now I've been using a laptop, since I got it for Christmas. Before that i always had a desktop...very much prefer laptops :)

For about a year and a half now I've used a Laptop. The Desktops here at my house are well... '97s so it runs pretty slow and stuff. So I would obviously much rather use my laptop (despite the problems it's been giving me lately).

I use my desktop more, since my laptop is pretty slow.

I use two laptops, but I have an external keyboard/monitor/mouse that can make either work as a desktop. Even better, I have a freeware app that can make another laptop monitor on my LAN to act as an extended desktop, so I've successfully had a three-monitor desktop :D

I used to use a desktop, but now laptop.

Desktop — easier to change the hardware.
I do have a pair of 95 laptops, but they don't get nearly as much use.

I occasionally use my two laptops (Vista and XP) when my desktop and/or internet is broken.

Other than that, I use my smexy 8 GB desktop. I love this thing to death.

I used to have a laptop. The screen broke so I had to hook it up to a monitor. Then the computer itself took like 5 attempts to boot up correctly until it wouldn't do anything at all. Now I have a desktop. More suitable for a person who tends to go through and break electronics quite easily. :V

I have a desktop. My parents aren't too keen on getting a laptop.

 

[yaminokaitou]

I use a laptop right now. Until then I used my parents' desktop.

MacBook Pro as my main computer for a couple years now. I inherited an old Powerbook G4 that I use as a Netbook of sorts, it get's about the same battery life as current netbooks anyway. (PB is the 12" version)

 

[>Feelings<]

I use both at different times.

Desktop always has much more potential in terms of power than a laptop at a given time.
Modifying desktop are also easier. It is cheaper and better.
They are also easy to fix and upgrade for the hardware part. It's just that good.

But Laptops are portable - an advantage with good weights even if only one.
They really aren't good for much else, except for saving space if that counts.
It's better for people with much less of a need for raw power and for people who just want a PC to use.

But I got both anyways. The desktop is totally mine, and the laptop is shared, though I am the one to use it most of the time.
So my desktop serves as my real personal storage.

I'm Bi.... I do both!

:)

 

[donavannj]

I use both... but primarily the laptop, since it is the more powerful of the two I have.

 

[Ayano Katagiri]

I have my own laptop, which is what I mainly use. I wouldn't mind getting a more powerful desktop for gaming though.

 

[Kikaito plush]

I use a Laptop most of the times.

I own a laptop, and it's starting to get to that age where I need a new computer. Not sure if I'll get another laptop or a desktop when the time comes, though...
